there's 500 volcanoes that have been active int he past 2000 years
In general, an active volcano is one that has erupted within historic time. In regions where the historic record is very short (such as Canada), an active volcano is defined as one that has erupted within the last 200 years. Canada has one historically active volcano, Tseax cone. Its 1775 eruption killed an estimated 2000 Nisga'a First Nations people.
for 2000 years
Many volcanoes have been in continuous eruption for decades. Etna, Stromboli, and Yasur have been erupting for hundreds or thousands of years. The following 4 volcanoes emit the most lava: Kilauea (Hawaii), Mt Etna (Italy), Piton de la Fournaise (Réunion), Nyamuragira, (D.R. Congo). They are mostly found in the Ring of Fire (Pacific Ocean).
There are no active volcanoes in Australia, only extinct ones. For thousands of years, the only active volcano on Australian territory was Big Ben, which is located on Heard Island. More recently, there has been considerable volcanic activity on the nearby McDonald Islands, also Australian territory.
There are Ruapehu in New Zealand. Cotopaxi in Ecuador. Etna in Sicily. Vesuvius in Italy. Pinaturbo in Philppines. St Helens in USA. Kiluea in Hawaii. Mauna Loa in Hawaii. Popocatepetl in Mexico. Hekla in Iceland. Mount Vesuvius in Italy Mt. Fuji in Japan and there are many more!!!!!!
active : a volcano which is expected to erupt again or will erupt again eg.mt etna dormant : a volcano which has erupted in the last 2000 years but not recently eg Mt Baker extinct : a volcano which will not erupt again eg killimanjaro
